Patsy Kensit & Robin Windsor – Cha Cha Cha

Patsy’s gone all Kylie this week, and it suits her! It’s hard to know what to say about this routine…it’s ok but still is lacking something.  I think she needs to keep her steps a bit smaller to help with the hip action. For me just a 6 this week I’m afraid. Craig: 6 “Cha…

Patsy Kensit & Robin Windsor – Jive

Patsy ran out of steam last week, and Jive is even more intense, so let’s see if Robin’s bootcamp has worked this week. Looks like we’re going to see some chemistry between these two…oh dear a little two party dance at the start and Patsy loses her bounce before the end of the flicks and…

Patsy Kensit & Robin Windsor – Charleston

Liking the Chicago look.  Nice swivel action at the start but I feel there’s a slight lack of energy in the routine.  Patsy’s smiling but doesn’t appear to be exuding enjoyment.  I don’t know whether it’s just heavy or not, another finish with a kiss though. Overall I’m a little underwhelmed, only a 6 I’m…

Patsy Kensit & Robin Windsor – Waltz

So our first chance to see what one of the new boys can achieve in the show, training looked promising so let’s see what they can produce. Liking the lighting options, and song choice.  Girls always have it better dancing Ballroom with a pro dancer and straight away this looks better than Scott’s, though Patsy’s…
